"Wood trusses in your attic and/or on your outside deck contract..."

It sounds like your are having the same exact problem as millions of other homeowners have in the winter months. What happens is , during the cold winter months, wood trusses in your attic and/or on your outside deck contract and make a loud booming noise as they move. The same is true in the morning as they warm back up from the sun hitting the, they expand, making a loud boom or bang noise. This can and will happen several times a night or throughout day as well during the winter. Rest assured that your house will not fall down, or your deck will not fall apart.

Unfortunately, it looks as if your subs are blown and will have to be looked at by an authorized dealer. There aren`t any user serviceable parts inside. I called Sony when my speakers started crackling and they said to send them back to them. They fixed them free of charge because they were still under warranty.

"Loud expanding and contracting roof in the winter would be to funnel more heat..."

The only way to calm down a loud expanding and contracting roof in the winter would be to funnel more heat into your roofing system. This would cost a lot more to heat your home overall. If you have an attic, you could check your attic vents to see if there is a way to close them off up to 90% in the winter time. I have also noticed an increase in this happening when there is snow and/or ice on the roof outside as well. The best cure is for spring and summer to arrive.

This is happening at my house too, but what I found is that there are some electronic, sonic alarm system that people are using (I don`t know if its legal) and works as motion sensors going go thru walls as expansive wave, don`t believe me... but check by yourselves with your own movements inside the house and the cracks noises.

What your hearing is your house expand and contract based on the outside temperature. Heat and cold will slightly change the size of your house material and you`ll hear the materials rub together and creak.

I know I get cracking noises when the weather gets cold. I just figure it`s the wood joists contracting because of the cold weather. My buddy is a house contractor and he says it is normal... I`m not worried.

Im not sure why your home would be staying cold usually metal will attract heat and keep your home warmer as for the cracking sound when the metal gets cold it swells causing the sound you are hearing.
